Introduction
Phantom Tech Solutions (“we,” “our,” or “us”) operates DocuEasy (the “Application”), an offline-first document and file utility application available on the Google Play Store. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use the Application.
DocuEasy is designed to process your files locally on your device. We do not upload your documents, photos, videos, or other personal files to our servers for processing. Our Application relies on several Google services for analytics, crash reporting, advertising, and feedback submission, as described in this policy.
By using DocuEasy, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Application.
Permissions
DocuEasy requests certain device permissions to provide its functionality. Permissions are requested only when the relevant feature is used, and you may deny or revoke them through your device settings. Denying a permission may prevent the corresponding feature from working.
- CameraUsed for QR code scanning and document scanning via Google ML Kit. No images or video are recorded without your active action.
- NotificationsUsed to display progress notifications during long-running foreground service tasks such as video compression.
- Foreground ServiceAllows the Application to run long-lasting operations (e.g., video compression) even when you switch to another app. A persistent notification is shown while the service is active.
- Media & FilesImages, videos, and documents are chosen by you through the Android system picker (SAF / photo picker). The Application does not request any media storage permission and never accesses files you have not selected.
- InternetRequired for loading advertisements via Google AdMob, sending anonymous analytics to Firebase, submitting crash reports to Firebase Crashlytics, submitting optional feedback, checking for updates, and interacting with Google Play Services.
- Network StateUsed to check network availability before performing online features such as loading ads or submitting feedback.
- Legacy Storage (WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)Present only for compatibility with older Android versions (API 28 and below). On modern Android versions (API 29+), the Application uses scoped storage and does not require this permission.
Information We Collect
3.1 Information We Do Not Collect
DocuEasy is designed with your privacy in mind. We do not collect:
- Your name, phone number, contacts, or address
- Passwords or login credentials
- Personal files, photos, videos, or documents (these remain on your device)
- Precise location data
- Microphone or SMS data
Your files are processed locally on your device and are never uploaded to our servers.
3.2 Anonymous Analytics (Firebase Analytics)
We use Firebase Analytics, a service provided by Google, to collect anonymous usage data that helps us improve the Application. This information does not identify you personally. Examples include:
| Event Type | Example |
|---|---|
| Tool usage | Image Compressor opened |
| Feature frequency | Number of times PDF Merge is used per session |
| Completion events | Video compression completed successfully |
| Failure events | QR scan encountered an error |
| Onboarding | Onboarding flow completed |
| Rating interactions | Rate prompt accepted or declined |
3.3 Crash Reports (Firebase Crashlytics)
We use Firebase Crashlytics to collect diagnostic information when the Application encounters an error or crash. This information helps us identify and fix bugs. It may include:
- Crash stack traces and error logs
- Device model, Android version, and app version
- Device state (free memory, disk space, orientation)
- Timestamps of crashes
Crashlytics reports do not contain personal information such as your name, email, or file contents.
3.4 Feedback You Voluntarily Submit
The Application includes an optional feedback form. If you choose to submit feedback, we collect:
- A star rating (1–5)
- A feedback category (e.g., Bug Report, Feature Request)
- Your written message
- An email address (optional — you are not required to provide it)
Feedback is stored in Firebase Cloud Firestore and is used solely to improve the Application. You may request deletion of your feedback at any time by contacting us at the email address below.
Advertising
DocuEasy displays advertisements using Google AdMob. AdMob is an advertising platform provided by Google that may use advertising identifiers (such as the Android Advertising ID) and other technical information to serve ads that are relevant to you.
Depending on your location and applicable laws, ads may be personalised or non-personalised. Where required by law, we use Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) to obtain your consent before personalised ads are shown. You can change your consent choices at any time through your device settings or the consent dialogue presented by the Application.
We, the developer, do not directly access or store advertising identifiers. All advertising data is handled according to Google’s Privacy Policy, and you should review that policy for more details about how Google uses data for advertising purposes.
Third-Party Services
DocuEasy integrates with the following third-party services. Many of these libraries operate entirely on-device and do not transmit your personal files. Where data is transmitted, it is anonymous or pseudonymous technical data as described below.

Children’s Privacy
DocuEasy is a general-purpose utility application. It is not specifically directed toward children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information without parental consent, please contact us so that we can delete the information.
Data Security
We implement reasonable physical, electronic, and administrative safeguards to protect the information handled through the Application. Because most processing occurs locally on your device, the vast majority of your data never leaves your device.
Information transmitted to third-party services (analytics, crash reports, and optional feedback) is transmitted using industry-standard encryption where supported by the underlying platform.
No method of electronic storage or transmission can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Data Retention
We retain the information we collect only as long as reasonably necessary. Specifically:
- Feedback submissions are retained until we have addressed your inquiry or until you request deletion.
- Analytics data collected by Firebase Analytics is retained in accordance with Google’s data retention policies. You can learn more at the Firebase Privacy Policy.
- Crash reports collected by Firebase Crashlytics are retained as described in Google’s privacy documentation.
No personal files, documents, photos, or videos are retained by us because they are not uploaded to our servers.
Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your information:
- Access: Request information about what data we hold about you.
- Deletion: Request deletion of feedback you have submitted through the Application. Please note that we cannot delete data held by third-party services such as Firebase Analytics or Crashlytics, as those are governed by Google’s own policies.
- Inquiry: Ask questions about how your data is handled by contacting us at the email address below.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at phantom4tech@gmail.com. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe.
